There were quite a few changes committed to SVN and this was the last
package with a /usr/man directory in [core] and [extra] so I cut a
release. Here is a summary of the changes:


* securetty
Add 'hvc0' for virtual consoles

* fstab
Change /dev/shm to nodev,nosuid
Change "none" to "devpts" for /dev/pts and to "shm" for /dev/shm so they
look nicer in mtab


* profile
Remove LC_COLLATE=C from the default /etc/profile
Apparently this is not necessary and has been tested for a while.
If this causes regex-based scripts to fail, we should add
LC_COLLATE=C to those scripts themselves.
See FS#15250

* group
Add 'x' to all group passwords by default, to disable them

* misc
converted to "any" architecture.
remove /usr/man

This makes claws-mail folder sort order changing. Now my mailing list
folders are strictly sorted by the starting letter and no more first
the ones with capital letters.

Is this wanted?

Only LC_COLLATE=C is case sensitive AFAIK.
And yes, removing LC_COLLATE=C from the default /etc/profile is wanted
(I mean it is removed not because it is unnecessary).

People that prefer LC_COLLATE=C may add it back to their profiles.

As a side note, it does seem that we are one of the few distros (if
any others) that still did this. Ubuntu and CentOS didn't override it
last I looked (see ordering of ls output).
